Joe's garage
« on: October 22, 2008 - 09:19:51 PM »
My friend who has this 70 R/T Charger at his place. It's hasn't been driven since 83'. 440 A/T that was raced once and did a 13.10. Dutchman panel is it's only rust area.

He parked with a full tank before he put it to sleep. He won't sell it nor the 69 R/S SS Camaro vert. he has also. He does plan to "someday" restore both. In the meantime, they're just shop decor. Just thought you'd like to see it and the Camaro vert.

That's a sad sight, but at least it's out of the weather.

A small sample of his license plate and sign collection. Some are pretty rare.

I went over today and said hello, Merry Christmas... :blah:
To my amazement he just got it running.

Keep in mind it has sat almost 20 years without running.
It fired right up. Ran pretty bad due to a vacuum leak/ carb problem. Good to see he woke it up though.

Yes you can. I asked him earlier and he said it would be OK if somebody asked.

One catch...send me an e-mail of it on your site so I can forward it to him.
